The Rip is a 2026 American action thriller that delivers high-octane suspense, gritty realism, and a hard look at corruption within law enforcement. Written and directed by Joe Carnahan, who co-developed the story with Michael McGrale, the film stars Matt Damon and Ben Affleck as elite narcotics officers in the Miami-Dade Police Department.
Set against the sun-scorched streets of Miami, the story ignites when a tactical narcotics unit uncovers a massive $20 million cartel cash stash during a high-risk raid on a Hialeah safe house. What begins as a routine operation quickly spirals into paranoia and betrayal, as suspicion spreads that someone inside the unit plans to steal the money. Trust fractures, loyalties shift, and every officer becomes a potential traitor.
Following the murder of their commanding officer, Captain Jackie Velez, Lieutenant Dane Dumars leads his team into the heart of a dangerous setup—one designed to expose a network of crooked cops operating from within. As cartel threats close in and mysterious calls raise the stakes, the team finds itself under siege, trapped between violent criminals and their own compromised ranks.
The film escalates into a brutal showdown involving cartel gunmen, corrupt federal agents, and a deadly conspiracy tied directly to Velez’s death. As bullets fly and alliances collapse, long-buried truths come to light, revealing that the real enemy has been hiding in plain sight.
Inspired by a true story, The Rip blends explosive action, moral tension, and emotional depth. With a powerhouse supporting cast including Steven Yeun, Teyana Taylor, Sasha Calle, Catalina Sandino Moreno, Scott Adkins, and Kyle Chandler, the film stands out as a premium crime thriller packed with intensity, twists, and cinematic punch.
Released in January 2026 to strong critical reception, The Rip is a must-watch for fans of hard-hitting police dramas, cartel crime stories, and smart, character-driven action films that explore the thin line between justice and greed.
